Oil Pan Drain Plug

AMP762 · Aug 18, 2003

Option 3: Take your 38 and shoot a hole in pan near bottom, This will let all oil out and you can leave drain plug alone.

I knew a guy who drained his heater core like that /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Use a .44 mag and point up. That way you can get a new engine and forget the oil pan. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

I Finally got the drai plug out using a 4" angle grinder and a 10" pipe wrench with a small cheater pipe. I checked for a new drain plug at one of the local tractor dealers and he said he could order me one but that he suggested just welding a nut on the old drain plug. Well day before yesterday I decided to try my luck at finding the plug at an auto parts store. And what do you know that had one to fit!!! $2.74 later I was back in business with a new drain plug!!!

Don't forget to jot down the part number is case you need it again.

Like they always say, where there is a will there is a way. Glad it worked out OK.
